Hi ladies' date=' I would love to participate too. I live in Fountain Hills, but very willing to travel. I used True Results and I'm very happy. My surgery was 11/01/12, I've lost 40 pounds to date. I was starving and lost very little weight until January. True Results got me to the "green zone" in 2.5 months and that pleased me. They were willing to give me fills every two to three weeks. I greatly appreciated that. How are you all doing?[/quote']

Hello! That's great. Def trying to set up a meetup! Yes I'm very happy eitht hem too and I'm almost to my green zone! Like u I'm getting fills every 2-3 weeks too! Hope it hit that sweet spot soon! Haha

Doing well besides fighting head hunger of course but I'm down 34lbs as of last Saturday!

I know there is a good group called Lap Band Divas. It's not local. There are people all over the world. But lots of people with good info.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
